GNRF Here is an article from Mariah's own official website Clicky

And this is from the LA Times:
Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon have announced their new twins' names: The little boy is Moroccan Scott Cannon, and the little girl is Monroe Cannon.

Think the little guy's name is a mouthful? The best part are the kidlets' nicknames: "ROC & ROE! LET'S GO!," Cannon said on Twitter.

The babies were born Saturday in L.A., on Mom and Dad's third wedding anniversary, and the couple renewed their vows in the hospital Sunday with the Rev. Al Sharpton doing the honors. The babies names hit the street Wednesday.

New dad Nick told Radar Online that his son now has "the same middle name as me -- Moroccan is like Mariah and my name together. Roc for short, strong name." It was in the Moroccan Room, the top tier of Carey's Manhattan apartment, where Cannon proposed, CNN reported.

As for the little lady, she's Monroe as in Marilyn Monroe -- with no middle name, because Mom doesn't have one of those.

--------------------------------
Now here is the thing IMDB & a couple other sites says that Mariah's middle name is Angela, but if you do a search on the net you come up with alot of sites who say that she doesn't have a middle name because her mom wanted her to be just "Mariah Carey" because she knew/felt that she would someday be a star. As she was singing opera in true pitch and italian without missing a beat at the age of three. One on a site said she even said she had no middle name on an ep of Jimmy Kimmel, problem is that, that video is no longer available on youtube that I could find.
 
Cute story thank's Destiny;)

Plus the talent is rubbish on X Factor (with a few exceptions Leona Lewis is the only one I can think of right now) don't know how it'll be in the States tho. I don't see why he taking it to the States when you've already got Idol :shifty:.

In 2nd place was a holdover from last week, the car-racing sequel "FAST FIVE" Warner Bros. romantic drama "SOMETHING BORROWED" based on the Emily Giffin best seller, which made about $13.2 million "GINNIFER" from Universal Pictures. It made $32.5 million for a total of nearly $140 million in just 10 days. Opening a close 3rd and 4th place were two wedding-theamed movies, both ot which served as counter-programming to the effects-laden spectables in theaters. "JUMPING THE BROOM" from TriStar Pictures, came in 3rd weith $13.7 million, higher than studio expectations, which were around $10 million. Angela Bassett and Loretta Devine star in this~

But Depp also has other projects on his plate, including a camero on the big-screen adaption of the 1980's TV hit that made him a star "21 Jump Street". First, though, is the latest Pirates" installment, which opens May 20 and reunites Depp with one of his heroes, Keith Richards. [I heard that Richards will play his dad] :bolian:

A guy who beds mega women drinks like a fish with his teenage nephew taking it all in and a wimpy dad who's to scared to make a stand. So I could care less who's on this show anymore:(
